I was just commenting on George Carlin in another thread, and I thought it'd be cool for us to share thoughts on our favorite comedians.
My list:
George Carlin
Lewis Black
Chris Rock
Mitch Hedberg
Jim Gaffigan
Bill Cosby
Ron White
Bill Engvall
John Cleese (and the rest of Monty Python)
Amongst talk show hosts, I like Jon Stewart, David Letterman, Conan O'Brien, and Bill Maher.
I'm sure there are others that I'm omitting, as this is off the top of my head.
I hear so much about Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor that I really want to get a hold of their stuff. I feel like I'm missing out.
Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica.

Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.

George Carlin. Though not technically a comedian: Mark Twain. And of course Mark.

The New Jersey Nets should be considered too.

Louis C.K. is very, very funny.
Chris Rock definitely.

The New Jersey Nets should be considered too. Is this some sort of bizarre non-hockey reference?

I think they are a professional basketball team, but that's kind of debatable Ooooh, what about ventriloquists? Jeff Dunham and Achmed/Walter. Also Tim Conway/Harvey Korman...those guys were hilarious on the Carol Burnette show.

No favorite comedian here but my favorite stand-up performance is Eddie Murphy Delirious - utter brilliance. I could watch this everyday and it would still make me laugh.
